lac - harbor freight hydraulic jack

[Ben Swann]

I just used mine without doing anything to it - no problems - works great.  I
wish everything worked like that.

 

It does sound like yours may need bleeding, but should not have come that way.

anyone have any experience with the HF jacks? i bought their 'rapid pump'

aluminum racing jack:

and can't seem to get it to work properly. it has limited hydraulic effect,
won't extend to max saddle height [14 vs 17"], etc. i think because the
instructions to bleed it are very poorly written or translated.

 

it seems to be pretty well made, and i don't want to deal w/ returning it.

 

thanks
